Hyper-V
Enables Windows Server 2008 to offer a virtualization environment
Intended for midsized and large organizations that want the option to continue scaling their server operations upward Can also handle SMP computers Enables clustering
Advantages
Increases computer speed to complete server tasks faster Provides more computing power for handling resourcehungry applications
10
Another option in Enterprise Edition is the ability to have unlimited numbers of users remotely access a server
11
13
Hot-replace processor
Can replace a processor in an SMP system without taking the system down
14
15
When you purchase a version without Hyper-V, the cost savings is very small

Workstation
A computer that has its own central processing unit (CPU) and can be used as a stand-alone or network computer
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 19
Domain
A grouping of network objects, such as computers, servers, and user accounts, that provides for easier management Computers and users in a domain can be managed to determine what resources they can access
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 20
Windows Server 2008 supports UNIX and Linux clients using the Subsystem for UNIX-based Applications (SUA)
22
Server Manager
Server Manager
Enables the server administrator to manage critical configuration features from inside one tool
25
Security
Network Access Protection (NAP)
An umbrella of security protection features that monitor and manage a server and its clients
Security (continued)
When you install Windows Server 2008, add a feature, or install a Windows component
An essential level of security is automatically implemented
Windows Server 2008 also comes with the Security Configuration Wizard (SCW)
Simplifies security configuration
27
Security (continued)
Other security features include:
File and folder permissions Security policies Encryption of data Event auditing Various authentication methods Server management and monitoring tools
28
Provide easier application of IIS patches Make it easier for network programmers to write network applications and configure applications for the Web

Windows PowerShell
Windows PowerShell
A command-line interface that offers a shell
A customized environment for executing commands and scripts
Windows PowerShell offers over 130 command-line tools, also called cmdlets
33
34
Virtualization
Hyper-V provides the ability to run two or more operating systems on a single computer The Hyper-V capabilities include the following:
Compatible with clustering Able to handle up to a four-processor SMP computer Can be used with Windows and Linux operating systems Compatible with different types of disk storage methods Enables fast migration from one computer to another Can house 64-bit and 32-bit operating systems
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 35
Reliability
The operating system kernel runs in privileged mode
Protects it from problems created by a malfunctioning program or process
The kernel consists of the core programs and the computer code of the operating system Privileged mode gives the operating system kernel an extra level of security from intruders
Prevents system crashes due to poorly written applications
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 36
Reliability (continued)
Microsoft has introduced typical and protected processes Process
A computer program or portion of a program that is currently running
Typical process
Like one on previous Windows systems in which the process can be influenced by a user or other processes
Protected process
One for which outside influences are restricted
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 37
38
Multithreading
The capability of programs written to run several program code blocks, or threads, at the same time
Preemptive multitasking
Each program runs in an area of memory separate from areas used by other programs Reduces the risk of one program interfering with the smooth running of another program

Peer-to-peer networking
Focuses on spreading network resource administration among server and nonserver members of a network
Server-based networking
Centralizes the network administration on one or more servers
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 42
Peer-to-Peer Networking
Uses workstations to share resources such as files and printers and to connect to resources on other computers
No special computer is needed to enable workstations to communicate and share resources
44
Workgroup
A number of users who share drive and printer resources
45
46
Server-Based Networking
Server
A single computer that provides extensive multiuser access to network resources Can handle hundreds of users at once
Fast response when delivering the shared resource Less network congestion when multiple workstations access that resource
Advantages
Users only need to log on once to gain access to network resources Security is stronger

Internet Protocol
Internet Protocol (IP)
Provides network addressing to ensure data packets quickly reach the correct destination
55
Unicast
A transmission in which one packet is sent from a server to each client that requests a file or application
Multicast
Server is able to treat all clients as a group and send one packet per transmission that reaches all clients
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 56
Subnet mask
Shows the class of addressing used Divides a network into subnetworks or subnets to control network traffic
57
58
Cannot assign a network number to a computer or any other host on the network

IPv6 is designed so that addresses can be configured using a wide range of options
Enables better communications for routing and subnetting
65
Dynamic addressing
Automatically assigns an IP address to a computer each time it is logged on Uses the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) to detect the presence of a new workstation and assign an IP address to that workstation
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 66
Name resolution
Domain Name System (DNS)
A TCP/IP application protocol that enables a DNS server to resolve (translate) domain and computer names to IP addresses, or IP addresses to domain and computer names
Hands-On Microsoft Windows Server 2008 67
68
69
Every NIC has a physical address, or media access control (MAC) address For computers to communicate with each other
They must know the MAC addresses of each others network interface cards
Proper communications using TCP/IP rely on both IP addresses and MAC addresses

Summary (continued)
TCP/IP is the default protocol installed with Windows Server 2008 TCP/IP is an industry-standard suite of protocols and application utilities that enable communication across local and wide area networks The two versions of IP are IPv4 and IPv6 Every network device, such as a computer or router, must have a unique IP address to ensure network connectivity and the delivery of data IP addresses can be manually configured using static addressing or automatically configured
